HF-Series intercooler set for VW Golf 8 GTI (EA888 Gen.4)

HF-Series intercooler set for VW Golf 8 GTI (EA888 Gen.4)

This intercooler for the VW Golf 8 GTI is a highlight from the HF-Series range.

The high-quality Bar'n'Plate network has the best cooling properties to deliver the best performance even under poor conditions and to be very robust at the same time.
It is characterized by its high resistance and does not heat itself up as much as comparable networks from other manufacturers.

At the same time, the entire system is also geared towards the best flow.
This means that the pressure loss is minimal and the entire charge air path has been developed in a streamlined manner using CAD flow analyzes. This also includes the cooler boxes, which are made of high-strength cast aluminum and are equipped with our WAY FIN TECHNOLOGY.

This is an extra guide fin inside, which guarantees an even and optimal filling of the entire net.
The inlet and outlet diameters of the cooler have also been enlarged to 70mm and, in combination with the reinforced silicone hoses from SF-Hoses, which are included in the scope of delivery, provide the perfect preparation for an increase in performance.

What exactly does an upgrade intercooler bring you?
In order to express the exact additional performance of a charge air cooler in numbers, many unknown factors must be taken into account, such as: performance variation ex works, further hardware changes, as well as the software used in the determination.
This varies from vehicle to vehicle. As a rule of thumb for engines with increased performance, up to 5% - 10% can be assumed.
But what is at least as important: Regardless of whether your motor has already been optimized or whether you want your motor to remain standard in terms of software, you prevent a loss of performance, especially at high outside air temperatures, or even reaching the temperature protection that is stored in many control units, and can therefore always use the full Count the power of your engine.

recommendation
Use the HF-Series intercooler as a combination of hardware and software optimization.
By reducing the back pressure (relieving the turbocharger) and cooling the charge air (increasing the oxygen content in the combustion chamber + thermal relief), performance tuning results in which the potential of every turbocharged engine is used efficiently.

If you are concerned with the hardware or software tuning of your vehicle, you must not ignore the factor "boost pressure loss".

If you increase the performance of your vehicle through chip tuning, the boost pressure is also increased in 99% of cases. Using the standard intercooler increases the charge pressure loss exponentially. This means that the turbocharger has to work even more, so the thermal load on the turbocharger increases and the service life decreases or wears out faster due to high speeds.

With our HF-Series intercoolers, we create the perfect balance between cooling effect and loss of boost pressure.
